Where's Walto?

Why, right HERE @ the (relatively) new abode of Walto’s World, a MySpace page that houses his fledgling blog and a damn sight better set of digs than his previous office. I’ve mentioned repeatedly how much I miss Mr. Horn’s more formalized musings on music (ie. reviews) and now there’s a sliver of hope that he’ll return to that thankless enterprise with his site as forum. Fingers crossed. It also has the distinction of being one of the most frills-free MySpace pages I’ve ever seen; here’s hoping he succeeds in keeping the rabid wallpaper & ring tone solicitors at bay with those well-chosen Screwdriver samples.

Whoa, Walto's myspace page features NURSE WITH WOUND as one of his friends! Zat right Walt? Didja send Steve a copy of Screwdriver?
Pretty psyched here because I get to open for Nurse With Wound this coming Saturday in Ghent with Onda & Berrocal

Tell you what, Dan. You let me open for Nurse and I'll give you his myspace add.

(Keep in mind I've got Schoenberg and Sun Ra as "friends" too--and they've both been dead for years.....)

Wow! and I thought John Corbett had some "Heavy Friends".

Arnold maybe (as you know Walt, I reckon he died about 1922 :), but Mister Ra's not dead - because, as he pointed out on numerous occasions, he was never born in the first place.
Seriously though (when am I never not), didn't realise you were a NWW fan.. I'll pass on your greetings to Messrs Stapleton & Tibet this weekend

hey dan could you mention that you'll be FACE TO FACE(!!!) with the LEGENDARY nurse with wound people again soon?
I mean, wow.
They suck live now, but who cares - YOU! get to share some backstage handshakes and maybe even namedrop the time you got to hand deliver a kechup packet to jim o rourke's russian lover.

(oof)

Kudos, walto

looking forward to seeing you play here this weekend, Dan!

Hey Horny, consider yourself kicked (in the cajones).

And speaking of kicks... Walt, when do the cd/lp reviews kick in over at Chez Walto?

Posted by: derek at June 7, 2007 7:06 AM

Thanks, Derek, but I doubt I'll write any more music reviews. I was a little tempted to write something about the Levine/BSO performance of Schoenberg's Moses und Aron a while back when Dan asked me, but as I resisted that, I think I'll probably be able to hold off forever. [Man, that was great, though.]

If it's any consolation, I'll get some book reviews in there occasionally, I reckon. But maybe nothing hip enough for this crowd. Not only am I farty, I've got other issues. Like today, e.g., I just put up something incredibly sappy--like a Hallmark Card almost: it just needs a pink rose or something.

BTW, I still didn't make your link list (even if, naked of music reviews as I am, I don't deserve to knock Brian O. off the top spot)!

I posted something for Brian Marley today.

Where & what?

Posted by: derek at August 21, 2007 9:21 AM

blog.myspace.com/waltosworld (to which I'd STILL love to see a link here at bag....)

Posted by: walto at August 21, 2007 9:39 AM

Done & apologies for the delay. But when are you going to write about ME?

Posted by: derek at August 21, 2007 5:56 PM

Done & apologies for the delay.

No problem; thanks much!

But when are you going to write about ME?

Hah. If you'd been reading as religiously as you should you'd know that I did talk about you in my blog of 8/15!
